FOX– MEXICO CITY – Mexico is pledging to spend $4.3 million to clean the Tijuana river channel after two California cities sued a U.S. agency over the decades-old problem of sewage fouling U.S. wetlands and beaches.
Mexico’s National Water Commission said Monday it will strengthen and clean overflow channels and drains, to prevent sewage and garbage from flowing into the Pacific near the U.S. border. It also will renovate pumping stations and electrical components to carry the runoff to treatment plants.
The California cities of Imperial Beach and Chula Vista and the Port of San Diego contend the International Boundary and Water Commission’s U.S. section failed to comply with the federal Clean Water Act.
Pollution forced the closure of beaches in parts of Imperial Beach on more than 160 days the past two years.
Just run by the Holmes Depot for all your toxic cleanup needs!
That’s a start but we can’t pat them on the back, as it will Fail during our next winter. I would guess 100 Million is a more realistic number.
They use the entire country like a garbage can and those that cross over illegally do the same to our southwest. Anyone we catch and ship back over the border should be made to bring back some of their garbage with them.
The only worse place than Tijuana I ever visited was Olongapo City in the Philippines. Both have drainage canals running thru them full of raw sewage, the one in the PI we affectionately called Shit River. Both these places are combination hell holes and shit holes of the worst kind.
$4 3M?? WITH AN “M”?? GMAFB!!
holy cow 4.3 million.
that’s like half the entire mexican federal budget, right ?
Ahh, the shit river… Good stories… Good times…
(None personnel for me as the US Navy refused my enlistment)
Oh, so the feces of white people is okay but you don’t want the feces of minorities? Racist h8r! Equal rights for feces of all colors!!!1
Dam that shiite UP, and let the mayheecans wallow in it! 😡
Mexico’s National Water Commission-doing such a fantastic job for so long! Yeah, we can trust them to do it right. Sounds like we need a dam to go along with the wall.
So one day out of four, there’s no kayaking around the Big Beutiful Wall? Well, that’s your problem, right there.
